Abstract

Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a system comprising a treadmill. The treadmill comprises a track and a weight stack. The weight stack is coupled to a harness coupleable to a user, the harness constructed to simulate pulling a weighted sled when coupled to the user as the user utilizes the treadmill. The weight stack is coupled to a handle graspable by the user, the harness constructed to simulate pushing a weighted sled when the user grasps the handle as the user utilizes the treadmill.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A system comprising:
 a treadmill, the treadmill comprising a track, the treadmill comprising a weight stack, the weight stack coupled to:
 a harness coupleable to a user, the harness constructed to simulate pulling a weighted sled when coupled to the user as the user utilizes the treadmill; and 
 a handle graspable by the user, the harness constructed to simulate pushing a weighted sled when the user grasps the handle as the user utilizes the treadmill. 
   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the treadmill comprises a brake activator that is constructed to, responsive to a user action with the brake activator, stop motion of the track via a brake coupled to the brake activator.   
     
     
         3 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the treadmill comprises a brake activator that is constructed to, responsive to a user action with the brake activator, stop motion of the track via a brake coupled to the brake activator, wherein the brake utilizes magnetic resistance.   
     
     
         4 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the weight stack is adjustable via a pin.   
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the weight stack is coupled to the harness via a system of pulleys.   
     
     
         6 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the weight stack is coupled to the handle via a system of pulleys.   
     
     
         7 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the treadmill comprises guiderails graspable by the user.   
     
     
         8 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the track of the treadmill comprises an adjustable incline.   
     
     
         9 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the track of the treadmill comprises an adjustable incline via pinned legs.   
     
     
         10 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the track of the treadmill comprises an adjustable resistance.   
     
     
         11 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the weight stack is lowered via a hydraulic cylinder.   
     
     
         12 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein:
 the treadmill comprises a hook constructed to retain the harness when the harness is not in use.
